Disruption, adaption and adoption

The COVID-19 pandemic has rapidly transformed much of the clinical trials and associated medical device, pharmaceutical, and vaccine industries in Australia and internationally.

What’s next for the world of clinical research as we learn to adapt to the changes which are likely to remain with us long term as a result of the Covid19 pandemic?  

Sponsors, contract research organisations, and sites are now focusing on returning to full capacity. Changes in practice mean that “business as usual” will be disrupted. Many positive changes will arise – and that’s a significant positive outcome arising from the pandemic, but what does this mean for our usual practice? 

During this webinar hosted by PRAXIS Australia, we will hear from sector leaders who will address ethical, practical and clinical implications relating to the new health and safety concerns for patients and employees and learn about their experience with solutions to those problems, such as telemedicine/telehealth, direct-to-patient approaches, and implementation of new site level technology to ensure safety measures are properly in place.
